Hey there. This is my first comment….blush……however, I just HAD to say that the last picture of the 2 cuties….wow, I want both…a puppy who is THAT cute and a son who naps (my son has informed me that he has no further use for naps…sob).

Also, lass, when are you putting up the next installment of your story…because damn, woman….I am addicted, and it’s best to provide the addicted scottish woman with what she needs………

I’m so curious to know what puppy toes has to do with “Frito City, USA”…. Most of the others, I get, but that one has me stumped.

The last one is soooo sweet!!!
For the pic labeled “too much bourbon”, I would label it sinner and saint.
For Jennifer in MO its a matter of timing and being confined to only certain rooms. As soon as they wake up and at least 10 minutes after drinking any water have them outside. We get puppies at least two at a time. Its always what worked well for us.

That last picture of your little guy snuggling with the pup under the blankie is just toooo stinkin cute!

That last picture-precious! Charlie looks so much like Clyde did when he was a puppy. I miss having a puppy. Now I just have a lazy, sleeping at the moment, Bassett Hound who is content to do nothing more than eat scraps off the floor and drool on himself.

Good times!

Hey, wasn’t that second photo a shot of Bernice??? Now that she is a has-been beauty queen, I was wondering what she is up to these days …

great pictures though, especially that last one. Oh how I miss my thumb sucker (why did I ever bring her to the thumb lady to get her to stop? She was so cute, as every thumb sucker is.)

Beautiful pictures Ree! (although I must say some of your captions seem a little harsh.To much cake last night or did MM keep you up late? )
Since you are a self proclaimed Aussie admirer I wanted to take a moment to say how shocked and devestated I am at the sudden passing of Heath Ledger. He was a talented and diverse actor and seemed to be a decent human being. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, especially his baby girl. I saw him interviewed once and was struck by how totally in love with her he was. He also made a fine lookin’ cowboy! He will be greatly missed!

Hey, I noticed the new “Print Pioneer Women Photos” tab at the top. Neat! Bourbon and Thumbsucker are my faves.

having never been a huge horse lover in my past i am surprised i am about to say what i am…something about your horse pictures just makes me want to ride one off into the sunset…or the sunrise…or though “rusty and dusty”.

Just had to tell you that your sky pictures have inspired me to paint a Texas (very similiar) sunset in a large dome ceiling in one of my clients dining rooms, then they can hang a gorgeous Iron light fixture from there..thanks for the beautiful inspiration…I love when the sky is lit afire with corals and blues and purples!!! That other photo of the beast and the baby….oh too cute!!! -Sandra

That last one is about as heart-melting as they come! Our puppy was NEVER mellow enough to cozy up to like that. What a great picture Ree!

I’m somewhat new to your site. A friend turned me on to it a few months ago and I visit when I can, lately almost everyday. I too am a amateur photographer and always love looking at photos. So I thank you for sharing all of your beautiful images, and you captions are so creative.

I completely relate to your last image and it is endearing. They look so peaceful, but as “they” always say, never wake a sleeping child or a puppy.
